State Makes a Good Start in Examination of
Witnesses.
DEFENSE OBJECTING TO ALL QUESTIONS

on the Slnml.
With the exception of a few minutes of
time which was devoted to other matters ,
the entire morning In the criminal court was
occupied with the cas of John Spoerl , the
dog catcher , charged with obtaining money
under false pretenses from the city. The
general Interest felt In the case , together
with the fact that Morgan , the alleged mur
derer of Ida Gasklll , was to be arraigned ,
crowded the court room to Its full capacity.
When the case was taken up some little
tlmo was npjnt In arguing the point raised
Friday night , that the Information In Its two
counts charged two aeparato offenses. The
county attorney , while he persisted that the
two counts were perfectly proper In the
Information , asked that the court listen to
( ho evidence before deciding , In order to see
whether or not the two offenses of obtaining
money under false pretenses and obtaining
the signature of the mayor to a warrant
by false pretenses , arose out of the same
transaction.
The attorney for the defense objected to
the court doing this , and then the county
attorney read a number of authorities which
sustained his position. After hearing them
the court said that be was still of the opin
ion that the counts charged separate offenses
under the- statute , but that good authorities
appeared to be against blm. Ho therefore
eald that ho would hear the evidence before
deciding whether to compel the county at
torney to elect on which ot the counts be
would try the defendant.
The defendants' attorney attempted to ob
ject , but the court cut htm oft. The state's
Witnesses were sworn and Mayor George P.
- Bemln was called to the t'tnml. '
TOO LATH TO QUASH.
Before his testimony was given the attor
ney for the defense asked that Spoerl bo
allowed to withdraw his pica of not guilty
and move that the Information 1)2 quashed.
The court held that It was too late for the
motion because thn Jury had been empaneled ,
nnd the examination ot the witness was pro
ceeded with.
Throughout the examination of Mayor
Ileinls and ot the city officials that followed ,
nlmpst every question was objected to. The
evidence adduced from them , however , only
consisted In proof of the appointment ol
Spoerl as dogcotchcr , and In showing that the
warrant which Spoerl and Frank were
charged with fraudulently obtaining In the
eecont count , had been regularly Isaued and
paid.Tho
The records showed that Spoerl had been
appointed dog pound master and the defend
ants' attorneys objected to tholr Introduction
because the Information charged Spoerl as
dog pound master and dog pound keeper.
The objection was overruled.
Comptroller Theodore Olsen testified to
Gpoerl'a oalh as being official and legal and
the bond was li.troduccd as evidence. Ho
also showed that the warrant had been legally
issued and paid.
County Attorney Baldrlgo stated that he
would at once tnko the testimony of Thomas
McGuIre , as the witness was anxious to leave
the city. McGulro Is the detective employed
by the city to keep tab on the dog pound.
McGuIre testified that from August 1 to
14 and from August 2S to 31 , Inclusive , be
bad been employed to keep count of the num
ber of dogs drowned at the pound. lie had
teen assisted , by JohnE. , Bell , who was at
the present . ( line outside the Jurisdiction of
the court. He had been at the pound every
i diy nnd had been present on every day on
which drownlngs occurred. Israel Frank
owas also present except -on one day. ,
HB. GIVES HIS FIGURES.
McGuIre testified that nine dogs were
drowned on August 1 , twclvo an August 3 ,
twenty-four on August 6 , fifteen on August
' 13 , and" fifteen on August 28 , a total of sev
enty-five. . There was only one drowning
on any .ono day and this occurred either be
tween 10 and 11 o'clock In the morning or
between 4 and 5 o'clock In the afternoon.
The tlmo for drowning was learned from
the man In charge ot the pound. The wit
ness said he had always been In an excel
lent position to see how many dogs were
drowned , because they were carried twenty-
five feet from the pound to a wagon and then
some distance from the wagon to the river.
.Only ono dog was carried at a time. He
bad been concealed at one point in the weeds
and Bell at another and their counts of
dons tallied.
The dogs were placed In a box which was
lowered Into the river. On every day he
found this hex dry when he arrived. The
witness said that the hex required five or
six hours to dry after being In the river.
After the dogs were drowned. Taxidermist
Gilbert skinned them. McGulro on several
occasions counted the bodies and found that
the count tallied with that of the number
of dogs that had been put In the river.
McQulre. on cross-examination , raid that
he was a detective from Chicago. Previous
to coming to Oumlia ho had been. for nine
years a detective for the Chicago , Milwaukee
& St. Paul Ilallroad company. He never
was in the employ of the Plnkorton agency.
Ho came to the city about July 9 at the so
licitation of Chief ot Police White to do some
special work. He hod rendered two accounts
against the city , ono for $ GG and the other
for $100. Ho presented them to D. Clem
Deaver ; they were not against him , but
against the city ,
The attorney for the defense then attempted
to show that McQuIro had been employed by
.J r Ueaver as an Individual , and not as police
commissioner. The examination was close on
this point and was frequently objected to by
the county attorney. The court finally said
that ho considered these objections as re
flections on the rulings of tlio court.
The examination proceeded no further ,
Judge Scott adjourning court until Monday
moling at 9:30 : o'clock. Th defense asked for
nn order requiring McQuIro to be present at
that tlmo for further cross-examination. It
was deemed unncccsrary by the court on the
statement of McQulro that ho would be In
attendance ,

"Not guilty. "
This was the plea of George Morgan to
each of ( he two counts of the Information In
which ho Is charged with Ilrst criminally
assaulting and then murdering 11-year-old
Ida Gasklll.
As the mnn stood before the bench with
his hlimls hanging by his sides , listening to
the long Information as It was read , with
eyes fixed on the oaken panel behind the
judge , It was dlfllcult for the spectators to
believe that he was the man being arraigned
for the brutal crime with which he was
charged ,

well formed head and good looking , tmootti
haven face were not at all In keeping with
the prevalent picture of a brutish criminal
which had been flxed In the minds of the
great majority of the crowd that filled the
court room. He could not look the juilgo In
the eye and It by clinnco Ills eyes rested on
the county ittorney as he uttered the words
of the Information they were averted at
once when the ofllclal looked up at him.
There was llttlo sign of emotion or
nervousness In the man beyond the fact
that the fingers of his hanging hands
twitched frequently and at Intervals ho ap
peared to gulp down something In his
throat , but when the question was asked
after each of the counts had been read :
"What do you plead to the charge , guilty
or not guilty ? " he answered "Not guilty , "
In his natural high tones.
Ho said nothing more until the court asked
If he had money to employ counsel. Ho
Bald that he had not , and then with Bomo
garruloiisncss ho went on to say that an at
torney had been waiting on him and that ho
was satisfied with him. The court appointed
two attorneys to defend him , and then asked
the * county attorney when he wished the
case sot tor trial.
The county attorney answered that ho
wished the case to conic up In the
coming week. Ha was all ready for trial
and did not think that Morgan's attorneys
would require much tlmo to prepare. The
court thereupon set the caaa for Tuesday
morning , or as soon thereafter as possible , If
the Spoerl case was not finished by that
time.
Morgan did not say a word about the mat
ter and when the court Informed him that
he was through , ho tunned and followed the
deputy sheriff quietly out of the room.

MAY FINALLY BE COMPELLED TO BUY ONE

Heretofore Cniuloiicil
Crooked Method * .
That the path of a successful office-seeker
Is not an easy one Is the experience of the
majority of the candidates who were elected
to city and county offices at tno recent elec
tion. Most of them had Imagined that when
they had successfully run the gauntlet of
the conventions and the election the rest
would bo easy , but they are facing a snag
that had not entered Into their calculations.
Nearly all of the city and county officials are
required to give bonds In sums ranging
from $5,000 up , and It now develops that the
number of eligible capitalists who are will'
Ing to become sureties on these bonds Is
exceedingly limited.
The recent treasury defalcations allied to
the general conservatism of the times and
the doubtful responsibility of many of the
officials recently elected have operated to
create a general reluctance on the part of
property owners to having their * names en
dorsed on bonds and especially on those of
some of the officials who have won their title
to office solely through their efforts to shield
the perpetrators of public frauds and con
done corruption tn office. Even the best
of the prospective officials are discovering
considerable difficulty In getting satisfactory
bonds , and others who possess the confidence
of business men In a less degree arc prac
tically up a sturnp.
The difficulty which Is experienced In this
particular Is freely acknowledged by a num
ber of the candidates. One of them who
would naturally bo expected to have the least
trouble In procuring bondsmen said yes
terday that much to his surprise ho was
having the greatest difficulty In getting re
sponsible property owners to go on his bond.
Half a dozen men who he had supposed
would be willing to become his surety for the
asking had declared point blank that they
were not going to go on any bond at all
this year. "And If I am bothered this
way , " continued the speaker , "I don't know
what some of the rest of these fellows are
going to do. "
Aa a matter of fact , although nearly three
weeks has elapsed since election , Police
Judge Gordon Is the only city official elect
who has qualified and filed his band with
the city clerk. The charter provides that
every official must qualify within ten days
after his certificate of election Is Issued and
the fact that a majority of the officials
elected have not yet called for their certifi
cates. Indicates that they are so far unsuc
cessful In obtaining a bond.
The trouble that A. G. Edwards Is having
in obtaining the bond that attaches to the
office of city treasurer , although reduced by
half , as It has been by an accommodating
council , Is a matter ot general knowledge
around the city hall. Whn Mr. Edwards
first blossomed out a ? a candidate he- was
disposed to bo amused when some ons sug
gested that It was a difficult task to get
such a bond. "Why , I can go out and get
a bond for $2,000,000 In twenty-four hours , "
declared Edwards , "nnd it will be gilt-edged ,
loo. " But since then" he has learned Bsveral
tlilngy , and ono of them Is that , the heavy
property owners and bankers of the city are
not disposed to risk their names on the
bond of a man who Insured his -candidacy
by assisting to cover up the defalcations of
his predecessor. Edwards had not gone far
In his effort to get his bond before ha dis
covered that something woilld have to bn
.done , The treasury ordinance thathe , had
once assisted to turn down was resuscitated
In the expectation that Its passage would
operateto hituso a little confidence1 Into
the capitalists. This falling to produce the
desired effect , the majority In the council
wa appealed to , and th ? bond was reduced
from $800,000 to $400,000. But even now
Edwards Is wearing a worried look , aod It
Is stated by a friend of his that nt 3 o'clock
'Tuesday afternoon he had not obtained a
single signature to his bond.
This being ths situation It seems probable
that the guarantee- bond companies will ,
reap a harvest. Under the provisions of
a law recently passed public officials arc
.allowed to file a bend of this character , and
several of the recently elected officials arc
known to bo preparing to fllo a guarantee
bond. The only trouble with this sort of
bond Is the expense , which most of them
are unwilling to hazard. The guarantee
companies exact a fee of from one-half of
1 per cent to 1 pr cent per year on the
face of the b'ond , and on a bond of $10,000
this amounts at the lo'west terms to $100
for two years.
In Edwards case the fee for the guarantee
bond would cat up bio salary. In the first
place the guarantee companies will not issue
a bond for more than $50,000. Consequently
In order to obtain his bond of $400,000 ! : o
would have to get eight companies together
to agree on a rate of compensation. At the
very lowest rate the cost of such a bonil
for two years would be $4,000 , and with
the cost of the additional bond required by
the Board of Education , It would add much
more to this amount. It Is understood that
Edwards will make up as much of hlg bond
as possible In the usual way , and try to
purchase guarantee bonds for the remainder.
